    “You stars that reigned at my nativity,
    Whose influence hath allotted death and hell.”
    —Christopher Marlowe (1564–1593)

    “Because you live, O Christ,
    the spirit bird of hope is freed for flying,
    our cages of despair no longer keep us closed and life-denying.
    The stone has rolled away and death cannot imprison!
    O sing this Easter Day, for Jesus Christ has risen!”
    —Shirley Erena Murray (20th century)

    When I clamber to the heights of sleep,

    Suddenly I meet your face.”
